Yeah sorry about that. In my typing frenzy I actually meant just media card readers, or quite possibly if you had a USB stick inserted into one of slots. Media card readers themselves will be recognized as drives even if there are no card in them, therefore giving them priority as C:, D:, and E:, etc. Also, this may have been corrected in Vista and Windows 7, but I know for sure it happens in XP.

I just was reinforcing that AS5 is that good. I was just trying to find a few decent words to give headway between regular ceramic compound and AS5. I guess longevity wasn't the best choice. Thanks for giving me insight to CPU architecture. You learn something new everyday.

Plus, I've always just ever used AS5 and kinda look down on plain paste nowadays.
